Book Discussion Skype

To wrap up Global Read Aloud, our ELA class 3/4 Skyped with our blogging partners in Ms. Pinnigar's class.  Students skyped in small groups, and took turns asking each other questions about the book One for the Murphy's.


Students worked together to create the questions they wanted to discuss. Here's some highlights of the questions they came up with:

  • How did you feel about the ending?
  • What do you think would have happened if.....?
  • How do you think the story would have been different if Carley had been a boy?
  • How do you think Mrs. Murphy feels about Carley's mother?
I was impressed with how deeply the students were thinking about the book.  It was great to see how invested they were in the plot and the characters!

Here's some more photos from the Skype:







The other class had to go a bit early, so we will be finishing up this Skype sometime next week.  A blogging partner Skype for ELA 5/6 will be coming up next week as well!
